Due to the hype i wanted to try this place out. Ordered the 6 piece bucket and got it spicy, peach mango pie, and pineapple juice.
If you want to avoid crazy lineups i suggest going before rush hours like major lunch or dinner times. I went on a Friday night at 4:30pm and only had to wait 20 min in line and just 5 minutes for the food to be packed.
They are very organized with keeping the line moving and they look like they have plenty of food ready to go. So things do move pretty quick.
Was it all worth it? Yes and no. The chicken was definitely tasty, very crispy and not super oily. The gravy they include is a nice add on. Not used to dipping crispy chicken into gravy but it was like when you know something isn't good for you but you just keep doing it anyways. If there was a super long wait i would just hit up popeyes. I find popeyes has more flavour in their spicy chicken and its just as crispy.
The other items however make the difference of this place to other fried chicken joints. The pineapple juice was very refreshing and the peach mango pie was super delicious. It is literally deep fried dough filled with sweet goodness. Think of McD's apple pie but 10x better. I would actually just go here just to eat the pie and get juice. Wish there was an express line just for those items.
All in all good place to try but not something i'll rush back to.
